In V.League, Hanoi Police Football Club is losing ground in the championship race. The Police team is ranked 5th with 29 points, 7 points behind the top team Nam Dinh. The inability to win in round 19 last weekend caused coach Polking and his team to miss the opportunity to improve their ranking in the top.
Coach Polking and his players have not really made the fans of this team feel secure with their recent performance. There were many times when Hanoi Police seemed to have escaped from a series of erratic matches to return to the V.League championship race.
However, immediately after that, Quang Hai and his teammates did not play successfully and were left far behind the top group of the rankings. Having just won two victories in rounds 17 and 18, Hanoi Police stumbled again in round 19 when they drew with Ho Chi Minh City right at Hang Day.
At the Southeast Asian Cup C1, Coach Polking and his team will host PSM Makassar (Indonesia) in the second leg of the semi-finals on April 30 at Hang Day Stadium. In this tournament, Hanoi Police Football Club had an impressive start when they won all 5 group stage matches. However, in the first leg of the semi-finals, they lost to PSM Makassar 0-1 away. However, that was a match in which Coach Polking's students outplayed their opponents.
Despite losing 0-1, the police team still has a lot of chances in the second leg. However, to get a ticket to the final, the Hanoi Police Football Club needs to be well prepared both professionally and mentally.
Now, the most feasible goal for coach Polking and his team to win a title is in the National Cup, where they have reached the quarter-finals. Coach Polking and his team's opponent is Hai Phong , the team currently ranked 8th in the V.League rankings.
According to VPF, the clashes between Hai Phong Club and Hanoi Police Football Club are always exciting and tense. In the first leg of V.League 2024-2025, both teams drew 1-1 at Lach Tray Stadium. In the 2023-2024 season, Hai Phong Club also beat Hanoi Police 3-1 in the first leg at Lach Tray Stadium (and lost 1-5 in the second leg at Hang Day Stadium).
The home team Hai Phong has now relieved the psychological pressure after a series of recent successful matches, escaping the clutches of the bottom group and rising to 8th place (24 points).
In round 19 of V.League, coach Chu Dinh Nghiem and his team won 2-0 against Quy Nhon Binh Dinh to "press" this opponent further down on the race to the safe group. These are extremely important premises for Hai Phong to confidently welcome Hanoi Police with the goal of winning and advancing to the semi-finals.
Therefore, marching to Lach Tray to meet the home team is not a small challenge for the star squad in Mr. Polking's hands.
The winner of the Quarter-Finals will face The Cong Viettel - another team with great ambitions to win the National Cup. The remaining Semi-Final has also been determined to be the match between Song Lam Nghe An and Becamex Binh Duong.
Looking at the current context, focusing on the National Cup will be a reasonable choice for the Hanoi Police Football Club. This is a title that can help them end the season successfully. In a journey full of challenges, the National Cup is a playground that will help Hanoi Police come back stronger in the upcoming season.
